ABOUT

First CongregationalText...

Who every you are; Wherever you are on your life's journey; You are welcome here!

First Congregational Church was founded on May 22, 1822, making it the oldest continuing worshipping community in Ravenna. We're now in our third building, erected in 1927.

But the church is not the building. It's not even the Pastors. The church is the people and their dedication to worship God and to work for God's reign of justice and peace.

To that end, members of this congregation have been active and instrumental in the founding of the local chapter of Habitat for Humanity and bringing water & sewer services to the McElrath housing allotments. We continue to participate in the "Loaves and Fishes" program to feed the hungry. And we are committed to welcoming all people regardless of their race, nationality, gender identity, or sexual orientation.
